Abstract: In this paper we briefly summarize the fundamental properties of spikes processing applied to artificial vision systems. This sensing and processing technology is capable of very high speed throughput, because it does not rely on sensing and processing sequences of frames, and because it allows for complex hierarchically structured cortical-like layers for sophisticated processing. The paper describes briefly cortex-like spiking vision processing principles, and the AER (address event representation) technique used in hardware spiking systems. ...
